    Things That Happened Before the Earthquake: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 648min
    Welcome to LA? Nineties Hollywood gets an Italian makeover in this poignant and ruefully funny coming-of-age novel featuring a teenage girl who's on shaky ground - in more ways than one. Mere weeks after the 1992 riots that laid waste to Los Angeles, Eugenia, a typical Italian teenager, is rudely yanked from her privileged Roman milieu by her hippie-ish filmmaker parents and transplanted to the strange suburban world of the San Fernando Valley. With only the Virgin Mary to call on for guidance as her parents struggle to make it big, Hollywood fashion, she must navigate her huge new public high school, complete with Crips and Bloods and Persian gang members, and a car-based environment of 99-cent stores and obscure fast-food franchises and all-night raves. She forges friendships with Henry, who runs his mother's movie memorabilia store, and the bewitching Deva, who introduces her to the alternate cultural universe that is Topanga Canyon. And then the 1994 earthquake rocks the foundations not only of Eugenia's home but of the future she'd been imagining for herself. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Carlotta Brentan.

    The Blue Clay Pot , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 691min
    “Mar-tee-a, come please.” The woman moved her hand under Martha’s shoulder and rocked her forward. Martha sat up, banging her head on the low ceiling. In the dim light, it was impossible to make out much, but there really was someone on the bed. Martha didn’t scream, because this wasn’t real. A crazy dream. Glen would be yanked from sleep if she gave in to hysteria and then he would be grouchy all day. When Martha’s spirit guide arrives before dawn and leads her back to the ancient land New Mexico, she knows this is a dream. Why would these people of the canyon imagine she could help them face the drought, or the persecution of the mysterious Man-with-Three-Spirits? But her husband Glen faces a different dilemma. Why can’t the doctors explain why Martha won’t wake up? In The Blue Clay Pot, author Robin Martinez Rice weaves past and present into a vivid, compelling and enthralling narrative. Fans of Imperfecta and Hidden Within the Stones will enjoy this tale of time travel, magic, and love. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Annette Romano.

    When a young woman is found murdered in a public park, it is up to RPD detective Lieutenant Tom Lackey to locate her killer. With the help of his longtime girlfriend and professional photographer, Kathy Spencer, Lackey unravels a mystery laden with psychosis and unexpected revelations.

Using her background in photography and her passion for iridology, Kathy enlists the help of Dr. Greer, a snow-haired medical examiner who allows her to take shots of Tracey Newman’s eyes. Her findings are puzzling, but they are supported by Alexis Howard, the dead girl’s 10-year-old half sister who volunteers information she claims was delivered to her by her imaginary friend Lily.
